We are all from different parts of the world with different walks of life. At the peak of the vaccine mandate, things got really intense--especially in some parts of the world. I had no social pressure from friends or family, but there were was some with my career.
The place I work at sent out a letter saying that vaccination was required for further employment. I began sending out job applications, and got an interviewed for a job that I really wanted, but they said I had to get vaccinated. At that time, I realized how much the pressure sucked for those I was reading about in the news. Very thankful now I never took the vaccine.
What is your story? Did you ever consider taking the vax?
I'm also one of the lucky few. No-one tried to force me, no-one threatened my job.
However, I did make sure, as much as possible, that I wouldn't have to go into hospital for any reason whatsoever.
Same here, changed up a whole lot about how we ranch during those times just to make sure there were no hospital visits. Unfortunately my son ignored that memo and decided to work a rather cantankerous Longhorn bull calf one day when we were out shopping for a new dishwasher. Got a call from the younger daughter who said he was spitting blood. He had gotten frustrated and just decided to tackle the calf and took a headbutt to the throat. Ended up being taken to a Oklahoma City hospital. I took him some clothes, laptop, etc and the nurse was nice enough to come get it from me in the parking lot because I wasn't about to put on a mask. Then comes the hatred and phone calls from the ex and his siblings.."you don't even love him enough to put on a mask???" Yep...that's exactly the problem. Morons.
